"Learn French in France, French language courses at language schools in France, Switzerland, Guadeloupe and Tahiti"

Papara
Almost 20,000km from Paris, French Polynesia is made up of a myriad scattering of islands, of which Tahiti is the largest. Rugged volcanoes, dreamy beaches, ancestral traditions and a fervour for life make for an idyllic escape, a return to nature at the edge of the world. This distant family of 118 islands, divided into 5 archipelagos, has a population of 250,000 and covers an area larger than Europe.

The School

The school is situated thirty kilometres from Papeete, the capital of French Polynesia. It is a small, family-run establishment offering personalised and flexible French language courses for all levels in a stunning location right next to the lagoon.

The school has the following affiliations or memberships:

Lessons

The French lessons take place from 7.30am to 11.30 Monday to Friday. They are organised by levels (beginners to advanced) and comprise a maximum of six students. The lessons integrate the four main language skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing.

Activities

The school offers various activities in the afternoon after class: visits to museums and gardens, cinema and shopping trips. Longer excursions, such as hiking and a trip to Moorea, take place at the weekend. Watersports and trips to the beach and lagoon can be organised any day of the week. Watersports include snorkelling, diving lessons, sailing, surfing, kite surfing, fun boarding or riding a hobbie cat.
For nights out, we recommend Papeete where you will find many bars and nightclubs, open until dawn and especially lively at the weekend.

Accommodation

The course can be booked with or without accommodation. The following types of accommodation are available: host family (room or private apartment), bungalow at the Hiti Moana Lodge or Papara Village or hotel. Please ask us for more detailed information.
